Just bought this. I've never played a DMC game. Can I just play DMC5 or should I start with the first one to be able to follow the story and get the references? I bought the HD Collection too just in case.

>Should I play the 5th game in a series
You tell me, bro. Start with the HD collection, then 4 and finally 5.

The story in DMC games does not matter, it is a gameplay-first series. Just because Itsuno forgot this doesn't change anything. I skipped all the cutscenes in 5 and it was still really good.
Jaxon Lee
You can play 5 and understand most of it just fine. As long as you know enough of DMC from Any Forums memes (Dante is a wacky woohoo pizza man with an edgy brother named Vergil whose mom is a woman and whose dad is a demon) you’re basically set.

>Should I play the 5th game in a series
but I played the 5th Elder Scrolls first and I was able to follow everything yeah, you're right
Christian Martinez
You bought the HD collection, you may as well play it.
Brandon Reyes
3 and 5 are really the only ones you need to play.
Henry Howard
It really doesn't matter, the story takes a back seat to the gameplay. If you're interested in story play 3, that one has the best one.
Jason Perez
The story is abysmal and the franchise barely has an identity. They can't even settle on what the main character looks like. That said, play 1-5. 1 is the only good one.
Landon Rogers
I heard 2 and 4, especially 2, have no relation to the rest of the story, are pretty bad and should be skipped. is that true?
Grayson Anderson
Start with 3/5.
DMC1 has a great atmosphere. Everything else feels pretty dated though.

1 is good
2 is shit
3 is great
4 is decent
5 is great
Play 1,3, and 5. 4 is a nice introduction to Nero but isn't all that fun.
Elijah Collins
I'm not buying this on PC because it's not like the special edition on consoles. I want an RTX update and all the other shit.
Andrew Allen
I recommend playing 1 3 and 4 first, but at the absolute least play 3 first.
you're doing yourself a disservice by playing 5 first.

just play 3 and 5. The story is garbage mate..
Daniel Evans
release order. Not for the story, it's so you can learn the mechanics from the start and adjust to the new ones as they're introduced in the correct order.
If you're playing games for the story you should go back to netflix.
John Peterson
Dante, Vergil, and Nero unironically have kino storylines
Lucas Wilson
Nathaniel Allen
both story and mechanics are equally important, though
Jonathan Martin
>but isn't all that fun.
It's plenty of fun and one playthrough is quick there's no reason not to play it.
